|author=Victoria Eveleigh
|title=Joe and the Race to Rescue
|rating=5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Joe's come a long way from the Brummy boy who didn't want to know anything about horses and ponies whom we first met in [[Joe and the Hidden Horseshoe by Victoria Eveleigh|Joe and the Hidden Horseshoe]]. His first pony, [[Joe and the Lightning Pony by Victoria Eveleigh|Lightning]] taught him a great deal, but Joe has grown and he's now been loaned Fortune, who's altogether different and Joe begins to realise that there's a lot more to being a great horseman than simply getting in the saddle and having the techniques. He needs to bond with Fortune and Fortune needs to learn to trust him. But Fortune isn't the only equine on Joe's mind. He's discovered a lonely-looking pony in a field and met Sherman and Velvet, two massive shire horses.

|title=Infinity Drake: The Sons of Scarlatti
|summary=Take one Victorian finishing school for delicate ladies, full of classes on how to waltz and swoon gracefully (not necessarily at the same time), perform a water ballet and use a bow and arrow without perspiring. If you're feeling very brave, you could even (shudder) stir in a smattering (just a tiny amount, for pity's sake!) of the fine art of embroidering Improving Sayings on a sampler. Add a bunch of unruly, unscrupulous and unwashed pirates (except, of course, for the dashingly handsome and gallant ones: they're generally quite hygienic). Chuck in a substantial dollop of magic and stand well back—the result is an action-packed and wondrously silly adventure on the high seas.
